Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) tell me about 2 stage nitrous????

[Sick Boy]

i am currently running a single stage setup now,an am still learning about it. what does the two stage exactly do? dont know thats why im asking, i would think would it not just b e easier to put in a bigger jet on a single stage, maybe thats not the case? what is needed to add this, i am using a hobbs switch now. when the second stage comes on does that mean both solenoids r spraying? enlighten me here

to make it simple it lets you run two size shots. you could run a 50 shot at the launch to spool the turbo then set it up to run a 150 shot once you reach a preset boost amount.

big time race cars will do this to have a less violent launch and keep traction and as they reach a certain rpm the 2nd and even 3rd stages can kick in for bigger nitrous shots.

PS-are you the original owner of the truck in your signature, or did you recently buy it?

not much trying to get ready for pulling season

gotta put the clutch, transmission, etc back in, and possibly doing a bearing overhaul on the dana 80 rear... at least so i can drive it for now. then get ready to do the 271 t-case upgrade, then after that when i get more money im getting a sps-66 and some bigger injectors

Two stages allows for more nitrous. You can also tailor the application of the nitrous to the task at had. The best setup is a progressive contoller running 2 stages (sometimes 3 on something really wild).

That setup is quite nice and much better than our hobbs switch activated ones..... not so violent on the initial hit.
